My Favorite Things

Lyrics: Charles Cedric Morton
Music: My Favorite Things
by Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II

Bright shiny helmets and armor of steel
Swords that are sharpened the deathblows they deal
Fighting my foes off their shields my sword rings
These are a few of my favorite things

Men who show honor when out on the field
No matter the odds they never yield
These men whose swords move as if they had wings
These are a few of my favorite things

Ladies in waiting with flowers in their hair
The sweet smell of perfume that they always wear
Skin that's so soft that it makes my heart sing
These are a few of my favorite things

Serving my knight in the way that I should
Hoping he'll find me both worthy and good
The idea of chivalry to which I do cling
These are a few of my favorite things

Maybe someday, in a great court,
When I've earned the right
They'll give me a white belt, and golden spurs
And then I'll become a knight.
